<p>[QUOTE="Brandt, post: 9047289, member: 96019"]I'm was kinda joking a little, but these transmission will go downhill at 2,200 RPMs all day. It's programed when you turn on stage 3 Jake brakes to always keep the engine RPMs 1750-2,200. It will keep dropping gears to keep slowing truck down and always keep 1750-2200 RPMs for maximum engine braking. Most driver are not use to that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
